Abstract

A sputtering system having a processing chamber with an inlet port and an outlet port, and a sputtering target (262, 364, 464) positioned on a wall of the processing chamber. A movable magnet arrangement is positioned behind the sputtering target (262, 364, 464) and reciprocally slides behinds the target. A conveyor continuously transports substrates ( 150, 250, 350, 450, 650) at a constant speed past the sputtering target, such that at any given time, several substrates face the target between the leading edge (243) and the traiIing edge (247). The movable magnet arrangement slides at a speed that is at least several times faster than the constant speed of the conveyor. A rotating zone is defined behind the leading edge (243) and trailing edge (247) of the target, wherein the magnet arrangement decelerates when it enters the rotating zone and accelerates as it reverses direction of sliding within the rotating zone. (Figure 2)
